AgentX replays real coding-agent sessions rather than fixed-length prompts, so context grows turn over turn and most of each request is served from cache instead of being recomputed. That turns the comparison into a systems question: KV transfer between nodes, prefix-aware routing, and cache capacity all move the curve alongside raw chip throughput. Fixed-sequence workloads stay the clean baseline for kernel and silicon performance, so the two scenarios answer different questions about the same hardware. Learn more about AgentX →
Near the low end of the 15–133 tok/s/user interactivity band — at 44 tok/s/user — H100 runs $0.07 per million tokens on Qwen 3.8 Flash Next 176B-A6B while H200 runs $0.02. H200 is the cheaper choice by 218%.
On Qwen 3.8 Flash Next 176B-A6B at 74 tok/s/user, the per-million math comes out to $0.07 for H100 and $0.02 for H200; H200 delivers 200% more output per dollar.
